Aim
The aim of this institution is to improve cooperation and coordination between research institutes, academic departments and industry that form the European biomedical imaging community in order to create a network of European biomedical imaging institutes, co-ordinate the development of biomedical imaging technologies within Europe and support the dissemination of knowledge with the ultimate goal of improving diagnosis, treatment and prevention of disease.
It develops and organises research projects within the Sixth and the Seventh Framework Programme of the European Union to create an environment in which medical doctors, physicists, chemists, mathematicians, molecular biologists, computer scientists, and other technologists and technicians can co-operate productively.

Famous quotes containing the word aim:
“The problem of culture is seldom grasped correctly. The goal of a culture is not the greatest possible happiness of a people, nor is it the unhindered development of all their talents; instead, culture shows itself in the correct proportion of these developments. Its aim points beyond earthly happiness: the production of great works is the aim of culture.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“The aim of literary ambition is to demonstrate one’s greatness of soul.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“The aim of all commentary on art now should be to make works of art—and, by analogy, our own experience—more, rather than less, real to us. The function of criticism should be to show how it is what it is, even that it is what it is, rather than to show what it means.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
